Magnolia Bakery to Launch Online Store in 2011

Magnolia Cupcakes Soon to Be Just a Click Away

Cupcake fans rejoice! The iconic New York City bakery Magnolia, whose cupcakes were made famous by Sex and the City, has announced plans of expansion. The cupcakery hopes to open new stores in New York, New Jersey, Washington, Boston, Philadelphia, and Chicago — and it's just signed a lease for a massive production facility in Harlem that will allow it to sell cupcakes online.

In Spring of 2011, the online Magnolia store will launch; it will sell not only the iconic cupcakes, but branded merchandise as well. No details as to how much the cupcakes will cost, but one can imagine that the pastel-frosted cakes won't be cheap. How much are you willing to spend on a cupcake? Do you order baked goods online?
